Vehicle Barriers: Their Use and Planning Considerations

Vehicle barriers are needed to protect natural resources and amenities at trailheads, picnic areas, campgrounds, and other facilities. The tech tip "Vehicle Barriers: Their Use and Planning Considerations" (0623–1201P–SDTDC) helps designers, land managers, recreation staff, engineering staff, and volunteer trail workers know when, where, and how to use vehicle barriers. Vehicle barriers used at campgrounds and trailheads do not take the place of highway vehicle barriers or safety barriers on roads. Construction drawings are included. The report is available at http://www.fs.fed.us/eng/pubs/ (Search for "vehicle").
